Was the Rebbe Against “Yechi”? | Reacting To Rabbi Manis Friedman | Ep. 56

from Greeting Moshiach · host Simcha Fisch and Levi Polichenco

In this episode of Greeting Moshiach, we react to a well-known shiur discussing whether the Rebbe encouraged or opposed saying “Yechi” and identifying him as Melech HaMoshiach.We break down the claims, challenge the assumptions, and bring the full picture — including the Rebbe’s own public encouragement of Yechi, the meaning of Chezkas Moshiach, and why this conversation matters now more than ever.Is the goal still just “spreading Chassidus,” or has our mission shifted to actively greeting Moshiach?What does the Rambam really say?And what does the Rebbe himself say?This is an honest, passionate, and unapologetic discussion about emunah, geulah, and the role of Chassidim in the final generation of galus.The geulah is here — we just need to open our eyes.Link to Rabbi Manis Friedman's Class: https://youtu.be/h3PpCX51gl8?si=6gXQjS02fh5UpY2k📩 Questions or thoughts?
